Florabotanica By Balenciaga Eau De Parfum 1.7 Oz Spray Florabotanica is the new fragrance from the botanical gardens of Balenciaga, inspired by the woman who is beautiful but dangerous like many rare botanical flowers. A bewitching fragrance, this new scent twists Turkish rose with hemp and vetiver roots for an addictive trail. About Balenciaga: The first Cristobal Balenciaga house of haute couture was founded in 1919 in San Sebastian, Spain. By 1937, Paris became home to the famed couturier. In 1946, the House of Balenciaga launched its first perfume, and soon it attracted the same acclaim as the famous Balenciaga couture pieces, which are today under the skillful guidance of Creative Director Nicolas Ghesquiere.
